Micro/Path: Bone Disorders Flashcards
The most common bone lesion is a __
fracture
Healing of a fracture involves what 3 phases
Inflammatory phase
Reparative phase
Remodeling phase
- Which phase in the healing of a bone fracture does a BLOOD CLOT FORM
- Which phase does a CALLUS of CARTILAGE + CALLUS OF COMPACT BONE/BONY CALLUS FORM
- in the remodeling phase, the __ is revitalized
- inflammatory phase
- reparative phase
- cortex
Non union of fractures means that the fracture?
Failed to heal
There are 4 reasons for non union/failure of a bone fracture to heal. What are they?
- Infection
- Ischemia
- Excessive mobility
- Interposition of soft tissue-between the fractured ends
- bone fragments usually protrude in this kind of fracture
2. what is the most likely reason a compound fracture does not heal (non -union)
- compound fracture
2. infection
Pseudoarthrosis or pseudojoint may occur when a fracture fails to heal due to?
excessive mobility.
Pseudarthrosis = is a fracture that has not united in the stipulated time in which such fractures usually unite and has no chance of union without intervention.
There is movement of a bone at the location of a fracture resulting from inadequate healing of the fracture
fractures in which bones may fail to heal (non-union) due to ischemia? (3)
neck of femur (thigh bone), navicular bone of the wrist, and lower third of tibia (lower leg bone) b/c they are poorly vascularized = subject to coagulation necrosis after a fracture
___ is a pathological condition resulting from a disease, injury, therapy, or other trauma
sequela
____ is most often a sequel of fractured bones due to the mechanical disruption of bone marrow fat and by alterations in plasma lipids
fat embolism

2. aseptic necrosis and degeneration
- osteochondro-ma =
2. osteochondro-ses =
